    What an amazing episode. Shannon has the innate ability to draw out the inner most thoughts of his guests. Him and his team set the atmosphere for the spectacular and miraculous to take place. Shannon places all his guests in a comfortable, safe space. And he sits back and lets them tell their true story from their experiences. He plugs and plays the right questions at the right time. AND HE LISTENS. I’ve watched Tommy almost my entire life. I would have never known how cultured, intelligent, articulate, passionate and down right amazing he is. Thanks for doing what you do Shannon. Now…if this here Club Shay Shay does not receive the accolades it’s due. The notoriety that it’s entitled to…then something is wrong. By far one of the greatest talk shows, pod cast, etc., out now that rivals top talk shows of the last and those to come.

    Blessings to this man. His greatest strength is being the storyteller of the road he traveled on and being able to pass what he learned while “hanging in his pain.” As far as Jennifer Lopez…he was her “lesson” that she just was blind to. She will keep running into the same lesson from different people at different times in her life. From Tommy and others her lesson may be to acknowledge that her ego blinds her to what is truly important in life. All that glitters isn’t gold.
